| Something interesting about this subject that others may not know: All windows and doors are built to meet specific standards. If a window or door is installed and maintained properly and still allows water infiltration to occur, it's likely that unit was not designed for that specific environment. | | Something controversial or provocative about this subject To some extent all exterior claddings absorb water, with one exception, windows, windows themselves generally do not absorb water. The area directly beneath any window must deal with not only the water that lands directly upon it but also with the water that drains off of the glass surface above. This higher exposure often overruns the capacity of the exterior cladding. |
